Description

냉장고의 식품 유통기한 관리용 스캐너 및 어플리케이션{Scanners and applications for managing food expiration dates in refrigerators}Scanners and applications for managing food expiration dates in refrigerators}

본 발명은 냉장고 속 식료품 유통기한 스캔용 바코드 스캐너 및 관리용 어플리케이션을 포함하고 있는 유통기한 관리 전용 시스템이다.The present invention is an exclusive system for managing the shelf life that includes a barcode scanner for scanning the expiration date of foods in a refrigerator and an application for management.

냉장고에 있는 식품을 잊어버려서 유통기한이 지나 어쩔수없이 버리게 되는 경우가 많은 점을 참고하여 상기 제품을 발명하였다. The product was invented with reference to the fact that there are many cases in which food in the refrigerator is forgotten and is inevitably thrown away after the expiration date.

기존에 존재하는 블루투스 또는 wi-fi 기능이 탑재되어 있는 무선 바코드 스캐너를 이용하여 블루투스 또는 wi-fi 기능을 이용해 상기 바코드 스캐너와 연동이 가능한 전용 어플리케이션을 제작하여 상기 바코드 스캐너가 바코드를 스캔할 시 상기 전용 어플리케이션으로 제품에 대한 정보 및 유통기한과 제조일자가 표시되며, 유통기한이 임박했을 시 푸시 알람을 통해 사용자가 잊어버리지 않고 식품을 처리할수 있도록 도울수 있게 설정함, 또한 바코드가 설정되어 있지 않은 경우는 상기 어플리케이션에서 자신이 직접 제조일자 및 유통기한을 표시할 수 있도록 구성됨. 이를 통해 냉장고에 있는 식품을 효율적으로 관리하고 밖으로 배출되는 음식물 쓰레기를 감소시켜 경제적, 환경적으로 효과를 볼수 있음.Using the existing wireless barcode scanner equipped with Bluetooth or wi-fi function, create a dedicated application that can be linked with the barcode scanner using Bluetooth or wi-fi function, and when the barcode scanner scans the barcode, the It is a dedicated application that displays product information, expiration date, and manufacturing date. When the expiration date is imminent, a push alarm is set to help the user process food without forgetting it. Also, if the barcode is not set, The case is configured to be able to directly display the manufacturing date and expiration date in the application. Through this, the food in the refrigerator can be efficiently managed and the food waste discharged outside can be reduced, which is economically and environmentally effective.

110은 제품의 바코드를 스캔하기 위한 레이저 부분
120은 제품의 전원 ON/OFF, 와이파이 연결, 블루투스 연결 여부를 확인하기 위한 부분
130은 바코드 스캔이 됐을 시 파란색 불빛이 점등되어 바코드 스캔의 성공 여부를 알 수 있게 해주는 부분
140은 건전지 삽입 부분으로 충전이 어려운 무선 제품 특성상 건전지를 통해 오래 가도록 구성함
150은 떼어내면 접착 양면 테이프가 있어 쉽게 냉장고에 접착이 가능함
110 is the laser part for scanning the barcode of the product
120 is the part to check whether the product is powered on/off, connected to Wi-Fi, or connected to Bluetooth
130 is the part that turns on the blue light when the barcode is scanned to let you know whether the barcode scanning is successful or not.
140 is a battery insertion part and is configured to last a long time through batteries due to the nature of wireless products that are difficult to charge.
150 has an adhesive double-sided tape when removed, so it can be easily attached to the refrigerator.
